Mags over ten rounds have been illegal in NY state for a long time, unless the mags were made prior to '94. The new law drops the limit to 7, and says that those pre-'94 mags must now be gotten rid of. You will still be able to possess post-'94 10 round mags, but you will only be allowed to put 7 rounds in them. Apparently this guy had post-'94 30 round mags, and those were illegal prior to these new laws.
